1:17:01
They put me in hypnosis
1:17:02
and tried to recall facts
that I had buried.
1:17:04
And that's how I first came out,
started talking about it,
1:17:07
just through being hypnotized
and everything
1:17:11
I recalled things
that I would bury.
1:17:13
I was able to talk about them.
1:17:15
For example, what would be
something that you recall?
1:17:16
The actual first time
1:17:18
I actually recalled
that I was actually molested.
1:17:23
Wow, I was actually molested.
1:17:24
I can deal with it now.
1:17:26
That was the first time.
1:17:27
And you recalled through
hypnosis the first episode?
1:17:30
Yes.
1:17:31
So tell me about that,
if you remember.
1:17:32
I don't remember much about it.
1:17:35
It was so long ago.
1:17:37
I just remember that
I went through hypnosis
1:17:40
came out,
and it was in my mind.
1:17:48
19-year-old Jesse Friedman
1:17:49
was arraigned on more than
198 additional counts
1:17:52
of child sexual abuse.
1:17:54
This brings the total number of
sexual abuse charges to 245.
1:17:59
Jesse was grossly overcharged
1:18:02
and you're basically
terrorizing the defendant.
1:18:05
You're telling the defendant
1:18:06
"Look, if you plead guilty
1:18:08
you know,
we'll give you a good deal
1:18:10
and, on,
you know, 2 charges.
1:18:12
But if you insist
on going to trial
1:18:14
we're going to put
1,003 charges on you.
1:18:16
And if you're convicted
of all those charges
1:18:19
you're gonna rot in jail
the rest of your life. "
1:18:22
I was told that
if he went to trial
1:18:26
the judge would give
3 consecutive sentences.
1:18:32
Instead of concurrent
1:18:34
the sentencing
would be consecutive.
1:18:36
I said, "Oh, my god. "
1:18:38
She just kept telling me
over and over
1:18:40
"The only thing to do
is to plead guilty
1:18:42
and to get the
best deal you can.
1:18:43
You can't go to trial.
1:18:44
It doesn't matter
if you're guilty or innocent.
1:18:46
You can't go to trial,
because if you go to trial
1:18:48
you're gonna go to prison
for the rest of your life. "
1:18:51
I said, "But Ma,
I didn't do it. "
1:18:52
She said,
"That doesn't matter.
1:18:53
You have to plead guilty. "
1:18:55
You have to understand,
this is a 19-year-old kid
